Tân Định Catholic Church

I visited the Tân Định Catholic Church and was immediately struck by its striking pink façade it’s hard to miss and even harder not to admire. The architecture is incredibly well preserved, with intricate white trim details that add elegance and contrast beautifully with the pastel exterior. It’s known for its vivid color, the church was ia popular photo stop for tourists and locals alike. During my visit, I noticed many tour groups arriving to appreciate and photograph the church from various angles. Unfortunately, the church was closed when I arrived, which was a bit disappointing as I was keen to see the interior. However, even from the outside, it’s a visual delight and definitely worth visiting. The surrounding grounds were tidy and enhanced by religious statues and floral arrangements, adding to the peaceful, reverent atmosphere. Built in the 1870s during the French colonial period, Tân Định Church is one of the oldest and most iconic Roman Catholic churches in the city. It reflects a blend of Gothic and Romanesque design influences, topped with a towering spire that dominates the streetscape. If you’re in Ho Chi Minh City and enjoy architecture, photography, or historical landmarks, this is one spot you shouldn’t miss.

Looks nice but is only a spot for photos. During a mass you can't go inside the premises. But even if you can go behind the gate you can't enter and look inside. At 4 pm on this Friday they closed the gate. If you are still interested in going half around :) The church itself is beautiful and stunning. I combined the visit with a stop in the Café opposite the church. Stunning view, chill vibes and wifi there ;)

This stunning church in Ho Chi Minh, affectionately known as the 'Pink Church', is a breathtaking example of European-inspired architecture in Vietnam. Its picturesque design and soft pink hue make it a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. Unfortunately, during our visit, the church was closed, and we were unable to venture inside. Nevertheless, the exterior was still worth admiring, and we weren't alone – many local and foreign travelers had also gathered to appreciate its beauty. One of the best things about visiting this church is that admission is free; you don't need to purchase a ticket to explore the surrounding area. Getting here is also convenient, as you can simply book a Grab ride to arrive at the church's doorstep. Plus, there are plenty of charming coffee shops nearby, offering the perfect spot to relax and take some fancy photos that are sure to impress your Instagram followers.

I was staying near this church and decided to visit it. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to go inside, so I only got to admire the exterior. The building is really beautiful, with a striking color and design. Many people were taking photos and enjoying the view. While I can’t speak for the interior, the outside alone makes it worth seeing.

I came to the church twice one day because I was walking nearby so I walked all the way on a rainy day and it was very beautiful. Look from the outside another day I went to the BAN XEO 46 a beside and that’s the video it’s attached. It was nice. They had a Catholic ceremony going on unfortunately I was not allowed to go in because I am not Catholic or this was not prepared in the right clothing is nice to see. Also, there are lots of different people on a busy night coming to pray and come to the church gathering. It was a very beautiful church to see a night as well and if you’re in the area, I recommend coming to go check it out.

Beautiful and iconic pink church in the heart of HCMC. Surrounded by cozy cafés and restaurants, perfect for an afternoon visit. Great spot for photos or quiet reflection. You can also attend a mass.

It's church, popular as Pink Church that everyone know. It's painted by light pink. Some people think that it's covered by Shocking Pink, but it is not. It seems like people can enter on weekdays, but not on Weekends. Unfortunately I visited here at the weekend. Actually this was the first time to visit this church on purpose Lol. I came here 100's times though Lol.

Pretty church but i didn’t realise before going that the church is closed to the public so basically it’s just a quick insta photo op. Beautiful architecture though so if you have time, check it out. The coffee shop across the road does a mean coconut coffee and you can admire the church from there
